12.13 Interrupt Pin Register

This register decodes the interrupt select inputs and returns the proper interrupt value based on Table 12−8,
indicating that the SD host controller uses an interrupt. If one of the USE_INTx terminals is asserted, the interrupt
select bits are ignored, and this register returns the interrupt value for the highest priority USE_INTx terminal that is
asserted. If bit 28, the tie-all bit (TIEALL), in the system control register (PCI offset 80h, see Section 4.29) is set to
1, then the PCI7x21/PCI7x11 controller asserts the USE_INTA input to the SD host controller core. If bit 28 (TIEALL)
in the system control register (PCI offset 80h, see Section 4.29) is set to 0, then none of the USE_INTx inputs are
asserted and the interrupt for the SD host controller function is selected by the INT_SEL bits in the SD host general
control register.

DESCRIPTION

7−0

MIN_GNT

RU

Minimum grant. The contents of this field may be used by host BIOS to assign a latency timer register value
to the SD host controller. The default for this register indicates that the SD host controller may need to
sustain burst transfers for nearly 64

µ

s and thus request a large value be programmed in bits 15−8 of the

PCI7x21/PCI7x11 latency timer and class cache line size register at offset 0Ch in the PCI configuration
space (see Section 12.6).
